My VAST ads are not playing correctly for some reason. Any time an ad loads, it’ is displayed on the upper left corner of the player. It almost appears as it is in it;s own smaller iframe. Not sure how to check if this is a CSS issue or something else to resolve.

Hi jpwilson,
Thanks for providing us the tag. I’ve tested it and it work fine so the problem will somewhere in your website.
First of all, can you please provide us your system info? You can find it at:
Settings -> FV Player Pro -> Tools -> System infoYou can simply copy the whole info into your reply, we won’t post it publicly.
Thanks,
JurajHello JP,
we have worked on a fix, please go to https://foliovision.com/my-licenses, hit the “Show Previous Version” button and you will get a link to download the new plugin version 7.4.14.727.
You will have to first deactivate and delete the FV Player VAST plugin which you are using and then you will be able to install the new version from that ZIP file.
This new version also fixes the issue of ad not playing for first-time visitors of the website who get sound blocked on autoplay videos.
Please let us know if your issue is still not fixed with that new version.
Thanks,
MartinHello Juraj
Installing this version of the plugin appears to have made the problem worse as the video still appears in the upper left corner of the video display and now “resume video” also appears on the screen while the pre-roll as is already playing? If you click on resume video it plays the regular video but reverts back to the pre-roll ad if you hit the volume button. You can retest using the previous links provided.
Thanks,
JPHello JP,
it seems that when FV Player VAST inserts that ad, it’s unable to properly detect the player dimension. It appears that it’s related to the JavaScript code in your theme. Could you please try to switch your website to some default WordPress theme to see if the issue is present also there? WordPress also lets you preview different themes easily these days – without having to really switch the theme.
I can see the bug with the resume button and will get it fixed next. It doesn’t appear on my test site and on foliovision.com as the ads are sized properly on it. But in edge case like yours it’s indeed a problem.
Thanks,
MartinHello JP,
we have worked on a fix, Same as before – please go to https://foliovision.com/my-licenses, hit the “Show Previous Version” button and you will get a link to download the new plugin version 7.4.15.727.
You will have to first deactivate and delete the FV Player VAST plugin which you are using and then you will be able to install the new version from that ZIP file.
The sizing issue was related to some jQuery fullscreen plugin on your website.
The issue with Resume button appearing was caused by your VAST ad code – it says the ad duration is zero.
Let’s see if that fixes the Android issues as well.
Thanks,
Martin
